Gravitational Lensing of Acoustic Charged Black Holes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We study the gravitational lensing of acoustic charged black holes in strong and weak field limit approximations. For this purpose, we first numerically obtain the deflection limit coefficients and deflection angle in the strong field limit.

Toward an Optimal Reconstruction of the Shear Field with PDF-folding

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Weak lensing provides a direct way of mapping the density distribution in the Universe. To reconstruct the density field from the shear catalog, an important step is to build the shear field from the shear catalog, which can be quite nontrivial due to ...

Constraints on early dark energy from CMB lensing and weak lensing tomography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
. We estimate the B-polarisation induced in the Cosmic Microwave Background by the non-linear evolution of density perturbations. Using the second-order Boltzmann code SONG, our analysis incorporates, for the first time, all physical effects at ...

Testing Velocity-field Lensing on IllustrisTNG Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Weak gravitational lensing shear could be measured far more precisely if information about unlensed attributes of source galaxies were available. Disk galaxy velocity fields supply such information, at least in principle, with idealized models predicting

Detecting and Characterizing Young Quasars. III. The Impact of Gravitational Lensing Magnification

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We test the impact of gravitational lensing on the lifetime estimates of seven high-redshift quasars at redshift z ≳ 6. The targeted quasars are identified by their small observed proximity zone sizes, which indicate extremely short quasar lifetimes ( t ...

Weak gravitational lensing by dark clusters [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2002
We calculate the abundance of dark-matter concentrations that are sufficiently overdense to produce a detectable weak-gravitational-lensing signal. Most of these overdensities are virialized halos containing identifiable X-ray and/or optical clusters. However, a significant fraction are nonvirialized overdensities still in the process of gravitational ...

Nulling tomography with weak gravitational lensing [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2005
We explore several strategies of eliminating (or nulling) the small-scale information in weak lensing convergence power spectrum measurements in order to protect against undesirable effects, for example the effects of baryonic cooling and pressure forces on the distribution of large-scale structures. We selectively throw out the small-scale information

Dark Matter as Gravitational Solitons in the Weak Field Limit

open access: yesUniverse, 2020
In this paper, we will describe the idea that dark matter partly consists of gravitational solitons (gravisolitons). The corresponding solution is valid for weak gravitational fields (weak field limit) with respect to a background metric.

Lensing in the Blue. II. Estimating the Sensitivity of Stratospheric Balloons to Weak Gravitational Lensing

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The Superpressure Balloon-borne Imaging Telescope ( SuperBIT ) is a diffraction-limited, wide-field, 0.5 m, near-infrared to near-ultraviolet observatory designed to exploit the stratosphere’s space-like conditions.
